100 Bullets is just too damn good.
Hehe, I seem to recall that from somewhere, I read up to issue 61, is it before or after that? Any other comic this line would stand out so much, but 100 Bullets have so many cool oneliners(and ridicolously amount of cool characters), that they just blend in and are said so naturally.

Bruce Jones is the worst writer I've read for Nightwing. And honestly, I don't like his Batman work either, nor his OMAC mini-series. I did read Deadman though which he was writer, it above average stuff. I'm not too sure why they keep him around. Good news for Nightwing fans is that he will be leaving after issue 124. Good riddance.
Wolverine Origins is terrible. Daniel Way should be shot. But since each issue released is within top 10 of sales, there's no way he's being relieved after this story arc. Then again, anything that claims to tell the origin of Wolverine will sell like hotcakes. After 5 issues, I have no idea what's going on or what it has to do with his origin whatsoever. So he has a son. Big deal. Nice Marvel, truly the house of ideas. Why the hell would he use a sword when his claws cut anything?
Garth Ennis' Punisher v3 and v4 has the best black comedy ever. I've lost count of how much I've laughed throughout the book. Loved how he owned Wolverine, Spiderman and Daredevil. I especially loved how he written Wolverine. Because for someone who claims he's the best at what he does, he doesn't do a good job at it.

Bruce Jones is horrible, i hate him so much. Cause Nightwing is one of my obsolute fav heroes after Batman,Punisher.
This quack destroyed it, lucky for us the creator of the original Nightwing series is gonna write NW now.
I am gonna dump Wolverine Origins now. A sword that kills a mutant that not even the power of sun can kill?? Give me a break. He turned the cool character of Wolverine to a soap, "Oh no my son hates me!!!"......
Thats why Gart Ennis is my fav writer, His Punisher is genius, V4 was crazy funny, i loved his wolverine

I think you should read 'The Boys' by Garth Ennis, it's a new comic he's writing for WildStorm. It looks really promising.
I am also enjoying Ion. I'm a big Kyle Rayner fan. I started reading Green Lantern during the Parallax run, so I don't have any attachment with Hal Jordan. I'm not too used to seeing Hal in the current GL title, and I think the retcon with Parallax is fucking stupid. It's great to see someone who recieved the power ring by absolute chance to be one of the most powerful being in the DC universe. Kyle looked like such a wimp in Rebirth, and I think Ion redeems him. The whole Nero impersonating Ion is bullshit, but my fanboy logic ignores that.
I had so much high hopes for the Flash. Bart Allen is one of my favourite characters in DC. They gave the title to has-been TV writers of the original Flash TV series. The pacing in the comic is well suited on screen than in a book, it doesn't feel right at all. After issue 2, I'm not too sure if this is the Bart Allen or the next Flash to fill Wally West's shoes. Let Geoff Johns handle this, the TV writers can screw off and stop trying to ruin Bart Allen.

McNiven couldn't keep up with the schedule and he didn't get a lot of lead time going into the series either.
If you want to know what happens in Civil War, just buy the main series and maybe a couple tie-ins from other titles. Don't be like those retards that buy every single fucking Civil War book with characters they don't give a shit about just to have "everything."
Oh yeah, I picked up a random issue of CW:Frontline and it sucked balls.
The whole CW tie ins are bullshit. I hate them all, especially the X-Men one. Did you know that Punisher is going to have a CW title? I mean come on, it's fucking Punisher, what would they want to raid his warehouses for? Luckily, the MAX series of the Punisher aren't affected. Frankly, all the CW tie ins books are really shit, besides the actual CW issues. I don't think they're great, but they're better than most of the current Marvel titles out there.
They are focusing on the heroes battles so much that the villians seem to be relatively forgotten. Besides hunting Nitro, most of the other villians seem to be in hiding or laughing at how stupid the heroes are for fighting each other. I would like to see how the villian community are right now in the midst of the Civil War.
But frankly, I don't see why New Warriors' fuckup is a valid reason to start this registration crap. I guess people in the higher ups always wanted some sort of registration for superpowers, and used this as an excuse, twisting and manipulating the truths to their side to make the registration act believable. Now the government has their own team of super soldiers. The next world war will be a genetic one, it seems.

i am mixed about that.
I don't think it's a 'alternate timeline', it's set in the same timeline as the current Civil War. I read somewhere in newsarama forums about SHIELD raiding Frank's warehouses and stuff like that, and try to convince Frank to join their side or something. Can't find the thread right now...But War Journal's the tie in to Civil War and is slated for release some time in November. The alternate timeline sounds like a 'What If' book.
The website for Marvel absolutely fucking sucks. It's a steaming pile of crap.
It's basically what Frank is going to do while the heroes are fighting each other...he's going to be there to clean up.

i forgotten where i read it from. i remember reading that the new war journal will take place in a different place than the current series. both will not be related to each other.
does this mean that the current series is the "alternate reality" instead?
one of them has to be "fake".
